Kobayashi Griselda

Griselda Kobayashi ( Born on June 21), known as Zelda(ゼルダ), is a Spainstar trainee of AKB0048 's 154th Generation and a member of Team K.

She was a former opera singer and a Galaxy Opera Cup winner of SC0124. She received vocal training at the age of 6. She is the first-ever opera singer ever to join 00. She's a rather gentle and calm person who wouldn't hurt anyone.

Appearance
Griselda is 157cm tall. Her natural hair color is Mahogany Brown. Her hair is luscious straight that is brought down to the back below. She always has her bangs to the left side of her face never on the right. Her eye color is Aquamarine, the eye shape of her eyes upturned eyes. Her facial structure is heart shaped. Her nose shape structure is a low nose bridge. The eyebrows are thick shape as the ears pointed ears.

Unlike every girl who auditions and succeeds in being a member, Griselda got her hearts during AKB0048's concert on Akibastar.

Griselda's body structure is rectangular shaped. Her weight is usually kept 123.0 lbs. The length of her arms slightly passes the torso (fingertip). Her feet size are always a size seven.

Her clothing style is always different because she doesn't have a preference for her clothing the only things she cares about if it's comfortable or even cute to wear. Her shoes are the same as her clothing options if they're comfortable then she'll wear them.

Personality
Griselda is quiet and gentle when she's all by herself. People (who personally don't know her) will think of her as a sweet, cheerful angel who would not hurt a fly, but, she’s very dorky, goofy, and remarkably untroubled and lives life.

She is the adventure type who chooses to explore new things even if it means getting herself hurt. After being restrained by her father from anything" unholy," she grew into this. She finally feels free from her father. She now loves taking a risk.

The only time she will get serious is when she's on stage performing. Her facial expressions do not show, but her body expression does. She doesn't want the audience to think that her performance is a joke or that she has not practiced at all. She wants the audience to feel amazed by the performance.

Griselda is more of a follower than a leader. She doesn't like to boss around people as she thinks it's best for the person to boss themselves. She's loyal when you earn her trust, but times she can be rebellious when she does not find it okay.

When she is extremely having fun, she lets out another personality. People would describe this as a beagle meaning she is extra hyper, noisy, very mischievous, and (of course) adorable. Fans love that about her.

She is a pacifist, meaning she doesn't like to use violence. With that, she is slightly cowardly when it comes to defending others, and she hates it.

Lovingness and Generosity are what she likes about herself because she cares about others rather than her own well being. She would even waste her own time to be with them.

She is a very determined girl wanting every Entertainment Ban Planet to hear the music from AKB0048. Having that first feeling when she listened to their music. She wants every planet to lift their Entertainment banned law. She doesn't see a reason to why a person isn't able to see AKB0048's entertainment. She was even determined to leave Spainstar and her family to go to another, brighter path knowing the risk of what's to come with her family and the DES.

Pre-00 Life
Griselda grew up in the out outskirts of town in Huelva, Spainstar. Since Spainstar is Pro Entertainment,00 was all around in the city except the countryside. Griselda never really knew what AKB0048 or any 48 family was.Her life was very restrictive as her father controlled her life without letting her choose what she wanted in life. The only thing she could is to obey.

Mostly her life on stage, but doing competitions and doing shows of the opera. She at first believed from her father that music from 00 was unholy and sinful and anyone who listened to it would suffer".Years later she would slowly disbelieve what her father told her about 00 as what her friends would say to her.

.When her parents left Spainstar for a vacation. Griselda took the advantage in doing research on what 00 really is about. The first music that she really listened to was Hoshi no Ondo .She couldn't believe her father lied to her all this time,but she was afraid what her father would have told her with that she did everything to erase the computers history (which she did terribly).

The day after her parents came back, her father found out what Griselda was up to. Griselda fought back as she couldn't take it anymore with her father controlling her life.Later she was sent to her room, she prayed and prayed for an answer she was looking for. A message popped up on her phone about an audition for 154th Generation that when she knew that this was her answer. When it was time to leave Spainstar. Griselda decided that when school was done, she'd go straight to the auditions. She had everything she needed. Her family knew (except her father) that she wanted to do this. Her mother is a Pro Entertainment and her sister as well.

Her mother and sister still covered up.Though it was later discovered by her father of Griselda being in 00 thanks to promos in Spainstar.

SC0126
Griselda noticed that she doesn't have any rival,she wishes that she could,it would be exciting
